Over the first two weeks of real college and N.F.L football action, there are a million storylines to enjoy. Oh, how I love this game.
Chip Kelly's high-speed offense seems to work in the N.F.L., and it's exciting as hell. Philip Rivers and the Chargers can still piss a game away with the best of them. Al Michaels is still the best voice in professional sports. Tim Tebow deserves a shot in Jacksonville. The Steelers are done. The Texas Longhorns are really, really bad. Notre Dame's head got too big for its britches. (Never bet on the Irish, they will let you down every time. It's a lesson I refuse to learn.)
Peyton Manning is well on his way to a 5,000 passing yard season after passing for 462 yards last week and a record tying seven touchdown passes. As a Bronco fan, this storyline should be the one I am most excited about. Yes, I am excited about how good the Broncos looked in Week 1. However, I am more excited about watching the slow, painful demise of U.S.C. football coach Lane Kiffin, who, after a 1-1 start so far, is undoubtedly going to lose his job sometime this season (or at the end of this season).
The only question is, how bad will it get before he gets canned and sent to the Arena League?
Those of you who've read this column long enough know that I am no Kiffin fan. Hate is a strong word, so I'll just say I really, really hate Lane Kiffin. My hate stems from a few years back when he was named head coach of the Tennessee Volunteers. As you may or may not know, I am a huge Volunteers fan, mainly because of U.T.'s Neland Stadium, which holds 110,000 Rocky Top fans – and those two beautiful checkered end zones. It's a place where good Southeastern Conference football lives, and Kiffin was given the head job at a school where real football lives.
Well, Kiffin crawfished the school and its fans for a job as head coach at U.S.C. after only one season in orange. He traded real SEC football for the Southern California lifestyle. Not that there is anything wrong with the Southern California lifestyle, but any college coach who gives up a SEC coaching job for it should be checked at a mental institution.
Kiffin is now in his fourth year as coach of the Trojans. His first two seasons at U.S.C. were basically warm-up years, as the Trojans were banned from college bowls. Last season, quarterback Matt Barkley decided to hang around U.S.C. for another season (instead of going to the N.F.L.) to win a Pac-12 Championship. To say it was a lackluster season is putting it lightly. The Trojans finished the regular season at 7-5, closing the season out with an ugly loss to Georgia Tech in Sun Bowl. I think a lot of people in Southern California, including boosters, players, parents and school officials were scratching their heads at that point. Kiffin was supposed to bring the Trojans back to the forefront of college football, yet all they seemed to do is go backwards.
So all eyes are on this season. Maybe this will be the season where U.S.C. fans will get to see the hidden football brilliance that Kiffin supposedly possesses?
Well, it's been two weeks into the 2013 season, and already the U.S.C. Trojans' year is down the drain. Finished. Caput. In Week 1, the Trojans beat Hawaii 30-13 in what was a sloppy showing of offense for the Trojans. (Those who bet with the 21-point-favorite Trojans, went home with their heads hung low.)
Last week, the Trojans – before a 77,000 home crowd at the L.A. Memorial Coliseum – lost 10-7 to the Washington State Cougars. Good on Washington State. I don't want to take anything from their effort last weekend, but they were a 3-9 team coming in from the 2012 season. U.S.C., frankly, should have trounced the Cougars. Instead, they lost and therefore, they lost their 2013 season. There is no coming back from this loss. This year the Trojans were ranked something like 13th in recruiting. Washington State was 53rd. That tells me that U.S.C. still has the ability to bring in top recruits, but its coaching staff doesn't have the ability to put it all together, and that starts with Kiffin.
His first and biggest problem this season was hesitating way too long to choose a starting quarterback. Would it be Cody Kessler or Max Wittek? Trojan fans were angered that Kiffin hadn't made the decision before the team charter lifted off to Hawaii for its first game. They split time, and were both sloppy. The same happened going into the loss against the Cougars last weekend. Both split time and the offense were even more sloppy. So on Monday, via video (the new way of announcing decisions without having to face the media), Kiffin finally announced that Cody Kessler would be the Trojans' starting quarterback. (A poor decision, in my opinion). Simply announcing that they have a starter, Kiffin said Monday, meant that better days are to come for the Trojans.
"It will help us in general, just knowing that it's one [quarterback] right now and that we can game-plan around that," Kiffin told The Los Angeles Times. "Now we can get off the 50-50 reps and get back to the one, to Cody getting the majority of the reps."
Well, no shit, Sherlock. This should have been done three weeks ago. No wonder your team is in disarray. Ask any coach who's split time between quarterbacks in the past, and they will undoubtedly tell you to not do it. For Kiffin, it's a decision that came two games too late. U.S.C's weaknesses have been broadcast already. Don't think other teams aren't going to do what the Cougars did to them last weekend. Hell, maybe even Boston College will beat U.S.C. this weekend. They could be that bad.
I honestly feel for the U.S.C. community in this. The Pac-12 is better when the Trojans are good. U.S.C. has been duped into thinking Lane Kiffin is a great football coach, and that he's to be respected. I would say Lane Kiffin plays a good football coach, but he's no real football coach. He's an actor.
From his days with the Raiders to his short stint at Tennessee to the present, Kiffin has done nothing more than disappoint. The sooner Kiffin is fired at U.S.C., the sooner their football program can get on a track toward success. What a bum.

.the image is one thing and the human being is another...it's very hard to live up to an image......................
i love his 1970s jumpsuits. this one is brilliant and he looks divine in these pictures. i think i prefer the more understated ones than the more fussy ones he later wore. he truly looks like a king in this suit (mmmn)
with White Macrame Belt
Tour 1970 09 xx
These three pictures were taken in Oklahoma City on November 16th, 1970.
I don't dislike this one but I'm affraid i like the other suits from 1970 better.
I like the simple costumes a lot but this one is too simple.
4 out of 10
I have a new song had a new song don't have a new song the song is comming out by me
The colour photo in the very firt post is NOT from Oklahoma City, Nov 16, 1970 while all the other photos are.
You'll see that the band is in black in that first colour photo while they were in white at the Oklahoma show.
Not one of my favs but he looks good in it.
I did it my way.
Seems like it was just a rip off of the Concha Suit. Both suits look so much alike. I don't care much for this one though.
I like it. Simple but effective!
"How do I get placed in situations like this? Ah hell, I guess it's all part of showbusiness "~ Elvis in his limo on his way to perform in Omaha, NE on June 19th 1977
On November 21, 2006 I wrote in and said that the very first colour photo in this thread was NOT from Oklahoma City on November 16, 1970.
At the time I did not have the information I have today so I'll have to take that back. The first colour photo IS from Oklahoma City.
HOWEVER, ALL the other colour photos posted in this thread so far are from Portland, Or. November 11, 1970.
The band wore black clothes in Oklahoma while they wore white clothes in Portland.
Take a look at my website and see the photos along with reviews from the shows in both Portland http://www.brian56.dk/701111.htm and Oklahoma City http://www.brian56.dk/701116.htm as well as other shows from the two tours of 1970
i like this suit its simple but unique and simply elvis i love the simple suits and the more flash only elvis coul'd pull it off
thanks for all the pics and info on this suit. this is a nice suit
Another great suit ---- I can't get enough of them!
I really love this jumpsuit, very simple and classy.

I have ultrasn0w installed strictly to fix the one signal strength bar issue on my ip4 (on AT&T with 4.3.3 & 1.59.00 bb) and I frequently run into problems with it when one of my Cydia apps needs updating. When I try to update an app(s), ultrasn0w gets reinstalled even though it's already installed and not in the queue. When that happens I get an error that says "Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)". Sometimes when I go to update an app I get the same error message without the ultrasn0w reinstall happening.
I did some research and thought I found a fix, which was the following:
1- Get your way to the file and directory structure of your iPhone (through SSH or iFile or Mobile Terminal ...)
2- Look for the /var/lib/dpkg/ directory
3- You should be able to find the following files: available, availble-old, status, status-old
4- Rename "available" to "available-bak"
5- Rename "status" to "status-bak"
6- Rename "available-old" to "available"
7- Rename "status-old" to "status"
8- Start Cydia , make sure that you allow Cydia to load completely first (just to be on the safe side ), try to install some apps.
I've fixed this problem several times now but it keeps coming back. I'm not sure if it's related to ultrasn0w or not but it seems like ultrasn0w might be stuck in the queue or something. I don't know if I need to do a complete reinstall of Cydia or if there's a way to just rebuild the Cydia databases but I don't know what to do at this point. It seems like every time I try to update an app or something this error comes back and it's the same error every time. Is there an easy way for me to uninstall Cydia and then reinstall it without having to re-jb and start over? I'm so desperate at this point.
Please help!!!

I joined Tesco as a bakery manager, when I was 21 years old. My career has taken me as far as China, given me the opportunity to manage our UK stores, oversee our internet retailing strategy and lead our business in Central Europe and Turkey, which is my current role. I have seen first-hand what type of opportunities Tesco can provide young people, as they make their first tentative step onto the career ladder.
Clubcard Fuel Save
12 March 14 By Chris Bush
Using Clubcard, we can keep a running total of a Clubcard customer's spending with Tesco every month and each time they reach a cumulative £50 mark, we will reward them with 2p off a litre of fuel. Whether they spend £20 online, £20 in a big store a few days later and then £10 in a convenience store, the amounts add up and provided they use their Clubcard, we will credit them with 2p off every litre to spend when they want to.

It has been almost a decade since Donna Mosier got divorced.
At the time, the couple discussed their joint accounts, including credit cards, and took measures to officially sever their ties.
Her ex-husband kept the couple's MasterCard and Home Depot credit card, and Mosier believed her name had been removed from those accounts. Her ex-husband died in July 2011.
Mosier received no bills, calls or correspondence about the cards — until last month.
That's when the Holiday Hills resident received a letter from a collection agency saying she owed $2,504.14 on the Home Depot card. The agency offered to settle her debt for $1,377.28.
Mosier quickly surmised that her name had never been removed from the account.
She obtained her free credit report and saw that not only had the debt been attached to her credit history, but the credit card company, Citibank, had reported her as dead.
To Mosier, it made no sense. It was her ex-husband who had died, not her. And why would the credit card company sick a collection agency on her if it thought she was dead?
She said she called the collection agency, which instructed her to call Home Depot.
"Home Depot said we have to correct it that you're not deceased anymore," Mosier said.
That part was easy. On Feb. 21, she received a letter from Citibank's Cardmember Services division, saying it had requested the consumer reporting agencies delete the deceased comment from her credit report.
But when she asked to have the debt removed from her name, she hit a brick wall.
Mosier said Home Depot sent her from its probate division to someone in "asset recovery."
"They don't care," she said. "They just want the money."
So she emailed What's Your Problem?
"My beef is, in 10 years I've never gotten a bill to my current address. Where has it been going for the past 10 years?" she said. "Obviously it was going somewhere else and someone else has been paying for it."
Mosier said that on her credit report, it is clear her ex-husband was making purchases with the card and paying down the balance each month until he died. If it wasn't for the $2,504.14 debt that she did not accrue, Mosier's credit history would be spotless, she said.
"I have spent countless hours trying to resolve my issue but to no avail," she said. "I am out of options and am frustrated with Home Depot and their disrespect of this situation I am in."
The Problem Solver called Stephen Holmes, a spokesman for Home Depot. Holmes said it was Citibank, not Home Depot, that sent Mosier to collections.
Still, he said he would work with Citibank to get her situation resolved.
On Tuesday, Mosier received calls from both Home Depot and Citibank, promising to have her name removed from the account and the debt erased from her credit history.
"I won't be responsible," Mosier said. "It will be completely off my credit."
Mosier said she was told it could take several weeks for her credit report to be updated.
While she's grateful the situation will be resolved and her credit restored, she said the episode has taught her a hard lesson.
From now on, she said, she will check her credit history yearly, using AnnualCreditReport.com.
"It's free," Mosier said. "I suppose if I had been running it for the last X amount of years, I would have seen this account on there."
Perhaps then she could have nipped it in the bud, she said.

Recovery, I choose you.
(Source: youtube.com)
The government has been less than graceful in the past few weeks. But hey! Here's an idea! Let's count our blessings, it could be a lot worse! For instance, an ordinary guy like me could be in charge. Here's a look at my official itinerary for a day in the life of me as president.
8:00AM - Give congress a piece of my mind WE DESERVE BETTER! We have spent TOO LONG waiting for change. First thing on my list, bust into the Congress house and let them know that the jig is up. Just kidding. I don't know what congress does.
8:00AM - Google what congress does/where it is Honestly, if I were president for a day, I'd spend a good deal of time Googling things. For instance: I don't know what this Congress business is all about. I'm not even sure if it's technically even a real physical thing. It could just be a collective noun for an abstract concept, like "zeitgeist", or "ethos".
8:45AM - Google what the senate does, which is apparently NOT the same thing as congress You learn something new every day, and in my case, as president, I've learned that while Congress IS a real physical entity that I can show up to, it's kind of split up into "The Senate," and "The House of Representatives." It's very much an "all squares are not rectangles" situation. But see, these are things that I bet you the real president already knows and thus, another poignant reason we shouldn't be so hard on the guy.
9:30AM - Visit the subterranean bunkers and read some top secret files Instagram all files written in "courier" font because that's retro, which is cool. Play fallout-shelter hide and seek with the secret service (I hear they're VERY good). Make shadow puppets, etc.
11:00AM - Spend some time reflecting in the presidential library And by that I mean, sequester myself for a couple hours to cram as many episodes of The West Wing into one sitting as I can. I'm not an Aaron Sorkin fan, really, because I don't like it when characters "talk" because I have a hard time deciphering human emotions from "words", but a little exposure to the whole politics game couldn't hurt!
11:03AM - Watch 1600 Penn instead. Okay, so The West Wing is a little above my reading-level. Whatever though, 1600 Penn is the same thing, just with Bill Pullman (who has played the President TWICE, which absolutely counts for something).
11:05AM - 12:30 PM - As it turns out 1600 Penn is also a nudge or several above my reading-level. But I did manage to catch up on How I Met Your Mother. Good show. Great show.
12:30 PM - Fix the Economy, Fix the Debt Crisis, Fix Marriage Equality I mean. You know… There's a lot of paperwork to sort through here, and really it's the thought that counts. And I did think about it.
12:30PM - End World Hunger Starting with ME. Time to check out the Whitehouse foodcourt.
12:30PM - 3:00PM - Get lunch at the White House's on-site McDonald's So the whole McDonald's in the Whitehouse thing as an old made up folk legend, which is unfortunate because that was one of the main selling points of being president. In case anyone is wondering, I was thinking of Richie Rich.

Understanding Game of Thrones as an American
Kings Landing = Washington, DC
It's the capitol, it's full of corrupt people vying for titles, and it's built on the backs of the poor. Everyone is vying for the Iron Throne and it's hard to figure out who to root for.
Winterfell = Boston, MA
Beautiful in the summer and uninhabitable in the winter. The inhabitants incorrectly think their city is the center of the empire. It is, however, the only real city in its region. (Providence? Really?) The people there are honorable and resilient, and spend much of their time watching sports. Not many black people.
The King's Road = I-95
A highly trafficked route from Winterfell to King's Landing, the road is littered with inns and merchants. There are also many bandits who live alongside it in dangerous places like New Haven, Newark, and Baltimore.
Beyond the Wall = Canada
It's cold, it's vast, and it's terrifying. But the wildlings are a good people once you get to know them. Also it's governed by a monarch far away who doesn't actually hold any real power in the people's minds.
Castle Black = Canadian Border Crossing
This is all that separates us from the unknown terror of the great white north. Also it's manned by a bunch of humorless guys that don't get laid.
The Iron Islands = Pittsburgh, PA
Cold, wet, gray, and nicknamed for metal, this is a place that was once prominent but is now full of working class people and pirates. And the pirates have been horrible for many years.
Casterly Rock = New York City
The regional capital (and the financial center of the Empire), it used to be ruled by a different group – until they were tricked into trusting a foreigner. Now it's ruled by rich people who think they're better parents than they are.
Lannisport = Greenwich, CT
Situated close to the main city, but far enough away that the citizens don't need to be bothered. Also, it's full of money and incest.
Harrenhal = Chicago, IL
It's rich, and it's on the way to most things. But the governing of it seems to be cursed as no one can rule it for long. And it burnt down once.
Valyria = Detroit, MI
Due to its fearsome beasts with great abilities to travel, this was once the center of the world and a shining jewel of civilization. But then a cataclysmic event rendered it a smoldering ruin of its former glory. The only thing that endures is a bit of their ancient music. And the secrets of manufacturing things there have long been forgotten.
Dorn = Napa Valley, CA
Remote area known for women, wine, and boringness.

U46 eyes progress of dual-language effort's 2nd year
By Emily McFarlan Miller email@example.com February 27, 2013 3:16PM
Updated: April 1, 2013 7:36AM
ELGIN — One second-grader read the few sentences she'd written about the dual-language program at Harriet Gifford Elementary School. "I like to talk in English. I can learn English and Spanish. My friends teach English and Spanish to me. I am learning English and Spanish at my school."
Another read hers: "Es un buen programa."
Both reports were part of an update to the Elgin School District U46 Board of Education on Monday night on its second year as a dual-language district from students, parents, teachers and administrators.
The district began transitioning to a dual-language model for its Spanish-speaking English Language Learner classrooms last school year, even opening some of those classrooms to English-speaking students as an enrichment program.
That model teaches students a second language while building literacy in their first language.
In it, kindergarten students receive 80 percent of their instruction in Spanish. That drops to 70 percent as the class moves up together to first grade, and 60 percent in second grade before instruction is split in half between Spanish and English in third, fourth and fifth grades.
"For every destination there is a journey, and this is our journey," said Wilma Valero, director of English as a Second Language and bilingual education in U46.
Rising numbers
In the first two years of that journey, according to the presentation by the ELL department, the number of students in one-way dual-language classrooms for Spanish-speaking students has increased from 3,817 students to 4,106; the number of teachers rose from 157 to 178.
In the two-way dual-language classrooms of both English- and Spanish-speaking students, those numbers have increased from 377 students to 1,093, the presentation said.
That includes a jump from 232 ELL students to 715 and from 145 English-speaking students to 378. The number of teachers in two-way classrooms has increased since last school year, from 25 to 40, it said.
The number of schools with two-way dual-language programs, all based on the interest from parents, has more than doubled from seven last school year to 16 this year, according to the presentation.
And those two-way classrooms are as diverse as the Elgin school district, with 195 Hispanic students to 107 white students, followed by 40 students who are black and 36 of different ethnicities, it said.
Next up, the district is collecting interest forms through April 19 to determine how many schools will have two-way dual-language classrooms.
And it is starting professional development for fourth-grade teachers, who will have the one-way dual-language students who started the program as second-graders two years ago. The model has expanded another grade every year with its students since it started with kindergarten and first- and second-grade students in 2011-12.
Board member Maria Bidelman, whose daughter is a fourth-grader in the district's pilot two-way dual-language program at Channing Memorial Elementary School in Elgin, called the district's program "fabulous."
"I'm very proud of what she does and the community that's built around her being in the program," Bidelman said.
And Superintendent Jose Torres praised the program, and Valero's work, as "renowned" across the country, noting the Promoting Bilingualism Award U46 was awarded over the summer.
"We have a wonderful, wonderful team," Valero demurred. "It takes a village to raise a child."

The lamp is beautiful and very well made. The crystal is stunning. I had to return it because it was too small for me.
By:Michel M. , Homeowner (Greenwich, ct)

This is an accent lamp -- and it's small -- but very substantial as the crystal base is heavy and beautiful. The oyster shade is grayer than I expected but quite neutral in color, with a bit of the silk shade's texture visible, when lit. the cord switch has a low and high setting, which is a nice feature but not really needed with a max 40 W bulb.

By:A.A. , Homeowner (Boston MA)
This is a beautiful little light. The glass teardrop is very elegant and well made. Perfect for a vanity or small night table.
By:A.N. , Designer (Los Angeles)
I ordered this specifically for an odd small space and it was perfect! Just the touch of pizazz it needed!
By:Gail H. , Homeowner (Dallas, TX )
Nice aesthetic for a bedroom reading table (we have overhead lights too which we use as this light wouldnt work by itself if used solely for a reading light).High quality lamp with nice aesthetic. Wonderful service and product arrived well packed
By:Lisa G.
Beautiful lamp with soft lighting. Good for a bedroom or entry way.
This is a very small lamp - and that is what makes it perfect for a small space! I looked for what seemed like forever for a tiny lamp for my tiny nightstand for my tiny bedroom. Most lamps in the "boudoir" category are flimsy, cheesy, frilly, or all of the above. This lamp has a substantial crystal base, even for its size, so it stays put and doesn't wobble when you brush the table or open the drawer. It doesn't put out that much light, so it's not a good reading lamp, but if what you want is quiet illumination while relaxing before bed, this lamp works really well. It also provides good, soft light if you're using a tablet for bedtime reading. The inline switch is also a plus for a small lamp - no bumping or having to move the shade to reach the switch.
Did I forget to mention that with its simple, elegant design it's just lovely to look at, too?

The Volt's electric-only range went up by 3 miles to 38 miles, and a body-color roof and hatch are now standard. Drive modes—Normal, Sport, and Mountain—can now be manually selected to help drivers get the most out of their battery charge. Lane-departure warning and forward-collision alert have been added to the options list, and GPS-enabled navigation using Chevy MyLink is now available...more
Although it's now entering its second model year, the Volt has yet to come close to the original sales goals projected by GM. The company is remaining optimistic, though. It helps that the Volt achieved its highest monthly sales to date in August and that it continues to outsell the Nissan Leaf. Despite the slow sales, little has changed about the Volt since its introduction: it has a gasoline four-cylinder under the hood as well as a 150-hp electric motor. The electric motor can power the vehicle on its own for about thirty-eight miles, after which the gasoline engine kicks in to spin a generator, propelling the car for an additional 300-plus miles. The Volt is no sports car, but it steers well, has a decent ride, and is surprisingly buttoned down, despite riding on low-rolling-resistance tires. Inside, the Volt is comfortable but lacks the refinement of Chevrolet's newest vehicles, such as the Cruze and the Malibu. The center console in particular is a low point in design and functionality. The Volt is offered only in a single trim level with just two available options packages: the premium trim package, which adds heated front seats and perforated leather trim on the seats and steering wheel; and the park assist package, which includes a backup camera and front and rear parking sensors.
Front, side, and side curtain air bags; ABS; traction and stability control; and a tire-pressure monitoring system are standard. A backup camera, front and rear parking sensors, and lane-departure warning are optional.

For me, Tuesday's elections brought back that sense of America as the land of the future. The presidential race is being discussed as one that was "about nothing," with no message or mandate. But that's simply not true. Put aside the reelection of Barack Obama and consider what else happened this week:

From left, UM President Donna Shalala, booster Nevin Shapiro and NCAA President Mark Emmert. (February 18, 2013)
CORAL GABLES — A report from Sports Illustrated will include new allegations from former UM booster Nevin Shapiro.
The publication sent a news release Wednesday morning announcing the story titled 'The Institution Has Lost Control" by writers Pete Thamel and Alexander Wolff. It deals not only with Shapiro's new claims, but the impact the Miami case has had on the enforcement process in general.
Shapiro told SI he was in communication with UM football coaches to gain insider information to use when placing bets on games. He claims this took place from 2003-09 and helped him win 23 bets.
He won $1.18 million after Shapiro claims UM coaches told him quarterback Kyle Wright would be benched for a 2007 game. Bank records supplied to SI back up the financial gain.
Shapiro also told SI that these allegations would not be included when Miami meets with the NCAA's Committee on Infractions this week. The school is set to meet with the COI Thursday-Saturday in Indianapolis.
Shapiro would not agree to any further interviews with NCAA investigators after they refused to pay his attorney, Maria Elena Perez, for work she did. That work was the basis for the NCAA throwing out as much as 20 percent of the evidence it had against UM.
Controversial former NCAA investigator Rich Johanningmeier was also quoted in the piece. He said he found Shapiro to be "substantially truthful" in interviews. He was also "taken aback" by the public comments UM president Donna Shalala is making about the active investigation.
Johanningmeier also said NCAA president Mark Emmert took more interest in the investigations than his predecessors.
The report also hits hard on the enforecment process and the hit its taken because of the Miami investigation. It includes a few emails previously reported by the Sun Sentinel and other news outlets regarding the issues with paying Perez.

The national political backlash against illegal immigration has created new divisions among Latinos and heightened their concerns about discrimination against members of their ethnic group-including those who were born in the United States or who immigrated legally.
About four-in-five of the nation's estimated 11.1 million unauthorized immigrants are of Hispanic origin. A new national survey by the Pew Hispanic Center, a project of the Pew Research Center, finds that Latinos are divided over what to do with these immigrants. A small majority (53%) says they should pay a fine but not be deported. A small minority (13%) says they should be deported, and a larger minority (28%) says they should not be punished.
Hispanics are also divided about the impact of illegal immigration on Hispanics already living in the U.S. Roughly equal shares say the impact has been positive (29%), negative (31%) or made no difference (30%). This mixed judgment stands in sharp contrast to views that Latinos expressed on this subject in 2007. Back then, fully half (50%) of Latinos said the impact was positive, while just 20% said it was negative.

The Volvo Group is passing an important milestone in its environmental efforts when Volvo Trucks now rolls out its most fuel-efficient and cleanest diesel engines ever. During the past 20 years, Volvo trucks in total have become one hundred times cleaner.
The Board of AB Volvo has today decided to withdraw the proposal to the Annual General Meeting to raise the ceiling for the performance-based variable salary from 50% to 60% of the fixed salary for the 250 most senior executives in the Volvo Group. The Board also withdraws its proposal to increase the number of shares in the long-term incentive program for these senior executives.
AB Volvo's Annual General Meeting will take place on Wednesday, April 1, 2009 at 3.00 PM CET at Lisebergshallen in Göteborg.
The remuneration to the executive management of the Volvo Group is lower than in comparable companies. This is confirmed by a study carried out by the Group's Remuneration Committee. Accordingly, the Board is proposing to the Annual General Meeting to decide that the ceiling be raised for remuneration including the variable salary of about 250 senior executives and for the share program that also encompasses them. The proposal is supported by Volvo's largest shareholders, representing slightly more than 53% of the total number of votes.
"We must ensure that we can retain key persons among Volvo's senior executives and this is not less important in bad times, more to the contrary," says Finn Johnsson, Chairman of Volvo's Remuneration Committee.
Total deliveries from the Volvo Group's truck operations in January amounted to 10,232 vehicles which is a decrease of 51%, compared with the year-earlier period.
Volvo Buses' subsidiary Nova Bus has received an order for 410 city buses to Montreal in Canada. The order is valued at SEK 1.3 billion and deliveries will be made over three years beginning in 2009.
AB Volvo´s long-term corporate credit rating has been changed by Moody´s to Baa1 with a stable outlook. The P-2 short-term rating is maintained with a stable outlook.
Renault S.A. and Renault Trucks are to conclude an agreement for the distribution of the Renault Trafic van within the Renault Trucks network.
In preparation of the Annual General Meeting of AB Volvo on 1 April 2009, Volvo's Election Committee has decided to propose the re-election of Peter Bijur, Leif Johansson, Finn Johnsson (Chairman), Louis Schweitzer, Ravi Venkatesan, Lars Westerberg and Ying Yeh as members of the Board of Directors. The Election Committee further proposes the election, for the first time, of Jean-Baptiste Duzan and Anders Nyrén. Tom Hedelius and Philippe Klein have announced that they do not stand for re-election.
The Volvo Group has been successful in its efforts to reduce its inventory. During the fourth quarter, the new truck inventory decreased by 13% and the inventory with new construction vehicles decreased by 19%, which contributed to reducing capital tied-up in inventory by approximately SEK 6 billion.

Just in case you have never watched TV, read a book, seen a movie, or looked at the comics, here is a brief history of Superman:
Shortly before the planet Krypton exploded, Superman (then known by his birth name, Kal-El) was put into an escape rocket by his parents and sent off into space. After crash-landing on Earth, he was discovered by John and Martha Kent, who raised him as their son, Clark Kent. As young Kal-El/Clark grew, he discovered his various talents, such as incredibly powerful strength and the ability to fly. Relocating to Metropolis, Clark began to live a dual life, working as a reporter for the Daily Planet, but turning into Superman whenever trouble surfaced.
The character of Superman first left the comics pages in the 1930's, starring in several animated theatrical shorts. He then moved on to enjoy a successful radio show during the 40's, a popular live-action TV version starring George Reeves in the 1950's, and even a 1966 Broadway musical before returning to the small screen in 1966, this time in animated form.
Almost ten years after the live-action TV show was cancelled, Superman starred in The New Adventures of Superman. The series utilized the same basic cast as the 1940's radio version, and consisted not only of stories about Superman's world-saving exploits, but also of segments that showed him as a boy in rural Smallville. These segments featured super dog Krypto and Clark's first girlfriend, Lana Lang. Bud Collyer, who had provided Superman's voice for both the Fleischer cartoons and the radio broadcast, reprised his role in this version, too.
The strong point of this version was its faithfulness to the comic book. The show featured villains from the printed stories, like Mr. Mxyzptlk and Brainiac.
After one season, the title was changed to The Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure, and Aquaman, the son of Atlantis, starred in segments of his own. In its last season, Batman was added to the show and given top billing, resulting in The Batman/Superman Hour.
Sadly, Superman was as vulnerable to bad ratings as he was to Kryptonite. Hanna-Barbera's Space Ghost finally proved to be too much competition for the Man of Steel, who left the cartoon airwaves in 1969.
Superman retained his membership in the Justice League, which kept him employed on Saturday morning's Super Friends well into the 80's. CBS gave him another solo shot in 1988, but this version went the way of Krypton, destroyed after one season.
The most recent incarnation of the man with the "S" on his chest came in 1997, with The New Superman Adventures. Animated in the angular, darker style of Batman: The Animated Series, this Superman caught on with 90's kids, becoming a mainstay of Fox Kids' afternoon lineup.

Maple Leafs Top 20 Prospects, #1-4: Fall 2008
After dealing away high picks for so many years, it finally looks like one of the NHL's worst farm systems is beginning to turn the corner these last couple of years.
For the most part, the Leafs' prospect talent level is very top heavy with a few bluechippers heading this list, followed by an intriguing combination of high potential boom or bust prospects in the lower ranks. The orgainzation's biggest strengths are its depth at the centre position and generally high skill level among its forwards. The farm system's weakness occurs on the blueline where there is little to look forward to beyond Schenn and Stralman, particularly if Vorobiev decides not to come over. The general lack of speed in the organization is also a cause a for concern.
